As far as I know, JAKIM is using a proper method to calculate. Based from a few articles by "ahlul falak", both within the country and abroad, the "ready-made" algorithm spread across the Internet is not "accurate" enough. There's another variable must be taken into consideration and included in the algorithm and these variable comes from annual astronomical almanac (these figures varies from month to month and are deduced by both observation and calculation as far as I know).
IMHO, it's still best to use JAKIM's takwim (or from jabatan agama) since they have their own falak unit.
